Jack Grealisk is expected to be omitted from the World Cup team of Manchester City, has learned Sky Sports News.
City must submit their last squadron of 35 players prior to the tournament in the US, but as it looks now, the English International will not be part of next week's travel party.
Grealisk has left for two more years to his City contract from Man and will fight for his place to struggle for playing time after this season.
If options come up for a relocation in the summer, they will be considered.
Due to its transfer costs and contract, a loan movement can become a possibility later in the summer.
Last month, Stadsbaas Pep Guardiola revealed that the club, Grealiskh and its representatives will work out a solution this summer.
The 29-year-old is connected to movements to other clubs in the Premier League and abroad.
Grealiskh came to City of Aston Villa for £ 100 million in the summer of 2021 – a British transfer transfer at the time – and played a key role in the city that secured the Premier League, Champions League and FA Cup to complete a historical treble two years later.
But this season, Grealisk started only seven league matches and was an unused replacement in the FA Cup FA Cup defeat of the city against Crystal Palace.
What Pep said about the future of Grealisk …
Grealisk was dropped for the last match of City of the season and after the 2-0 win in Fulham, an animated Guardiola accepted that the winger City City could leave this summer.
“It was selection,” said the Spaniard. “Of course Jack has to play. He is an incredible player who has to play football every three days.
“It also didn't happen this season and last season either. He has to do it, and that is with us, or another place. And that is a question for Jack, his agent and the club. If he stays it will be fine and he fought as if he fought from the first day to make a contribution, but not today.”
To Guardiola that he is unhappy with Grealisk, broke the Spaniard back: “Who said I am not happy with Jack? Rico (Lewis) was not selected, (James) McATEE was exceptional against Aston Villa and Wolves. Why wouldn't you ask me about McATEEE?
“It's not personal. I have 24 players, I have to get rid of six players for the last game and five today because (Mateo) Kovacic was sent.
“I am the person who fought for Jack to come here, and the person who fought for him to stay here and the following season this season. I am the one who said:” I want Jack Grealish “. What happens in the future is a job for (directors of football) Txiki (Begiristain), Hugo (Viana) and the agents.”
